I wasn&#8217;t expecting too much but I was hoping to break into the top 100 and it turns out I did !<\/p>\n <p>Highlights in my ranking include<strong>#45<\/strong> in fun and <strong>#74<\/strong> overall. Every other score is rather average, my game&#8217;s worst ranking being #459 in innovation. One small disappointment was my theme ranking of #371 as I felt using &#8220;minimalism&#8221; as a gameplay mechanic was a good idea, but oh well, I&#8217;m never very good with themes. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n <p>I was glad to see a lot of constructive comments about my game.\u00a0it seems the main gripe with the game was the controls and i can get behind that to an extent. some also complained about the difficulty and, again, I can understand that; I&#8217;m terrible at balancing things.<\/p>\n <p>One thing about rating though is that apparently some people don&#8217;t like using &#8220;N\/A&#8221; ? I mean BLM ended up #247 in humor even though there is *none*. no dialogues, no story, no nothing. I find that kind of demeaning to the people who actually put effort into that aspect of their game. but aside from that, no major complaints. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n <p>at any rate this was fun and I hope to do it again next time !<\/p>","time":"May 21st, 2013 12:23 pm","title":"results !"}
